I hope that you going to your editor will help you to get her behaviour under control. It's pointless and mean to pick on someone regardless and no matter what it is, it still hurts. Good for you for standing up for your rights be reporting her. <br />*hugs*<br />SarahSairshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09110575221596955775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948901123547466731.post-6339333103367005172011-02-27T22:17:18.809-05:002011-02-27T22:17:18.809-05:00She has no right to do any of the things she is do...She has no right to do any of the things she is doing. It is harassment. Sometimes I feel like I just don't understand people. Why should anyone who doesn't know you even care what you eat? And what has happened to simple politeness in our society? Why would anyone feel she had the right to call someone fat in the first place? What if someone called her ugly? Would she think that was okay? <br /><br />And it goes both ways. I remember when I was at my thinnest and there was this one coworker who always made cracks and jokes about how thin I was. And I was dying of anorexia! Then when I was trying to get better, I brought a regular soda to work (I can't drink diet pop because Nutrasweet gives me migraines) and another person said, "You don't drink regular pop. Why don't you have a diet Coke?" I ended up throwing the rest of it away, terrified I would gain from one soda. Then the first time I was weigh-restored, another coworker actually patted my stomach and said, "I see you have a little belly now." I was at an event and ended up throwing all my food in the trash, feeling incredibly self-concious. It was remarks like that that didn't help me while trying to get better for years. Finally, I just realized that many people aren't polite and they are going to say things no matter what.<br /><br />Now I just don't care. I know I need to be healthy in order to have a full and wonderful life. Say something like that to me now and I'm likely to tell the person to kiss my now-bigger a#@ if he or she doesn't like it. Don't give people more power than they deserve. You have come way too far.<br /><br />And I'm glad you told your editor. She could do this to other people, and she needs to be stopped.<br /><br />You are beautiful and don't forget it!<br /><br />*Hugs* <br />Angela<br /><br />(Deleted first post because of a typo.)Angela Elain Gambrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08199876962091491591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948901123547466731.post-33698242433631764072011-02-27T22:15:41.888-05:002011-02-27T22:15:41.888-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Angela Elain Gambrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08199876962091491591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948901123547466731.post-60337803976650849782011-02-27T21:55:29.529-05:002011-02-27T21:55:29.529-05:00nobody has any business commenting on someone'...nobody has any business commenting on someone's food habits whether they are fat, thin, or in between. Especially someone you don't know that well. This behavior from her is very bizarre. Very bold and downright rude. I can't believe it! She has totally crossed the line and she needs to know that whether you tell her or your boss. I hope you can get past this bump in the road. She's not worth it. Seriously she is behaving very oddly.CeCehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01390627453974953641noreply@blogger.com
